By HARRISON CARROLL r«rirM i(>> him rMtarw OnSkiu. Im HOLLYWOOD. Cal.. — Pretty Janet Snowden, 19-ytar-old oil heiress, who crashed the head-

lines by fleeing from Prince Di Sirginando Don Francisco Caravita on the fifth day of their honeymoon, is touring the Hollywood late spots on the arms of several hindsome film leading men. In the last week she has been to the Cotton Club with John Warburton. another rece n t headline

grabber, and to the fashionable Colony Club with Jack La Rue, erstwhile swain of Margaret Lucille and recent admirer of Ida Lupino. La Rue also took the young oil princess to the Paramount studio to get her first glimpse of how movies are made. Big question now is why all the secrecy when Janet and her guardian, Mrs. Edith Crocket, arrived here on the Santa Teresa. At that time, the heiress dodged ship news reporters, registered at the Ambassador under an assumed name and threatened to give up an expensive suite if a newspaperman so much as knocked on her door or reached the room on the telephone. Once met. Janet is friendly and talks freely. She tells me she came to California expecting to stay two weeks and then to sail for the Orient and to Europe via the Suez Canal. Now she may stay a month. And her dearest ambition, of all things, is to feel an earthquake. Gossips here are tittering over the remark of a theater-owner who previewed a picture and told studio officials: “Well, it’s pretty good. Looks as If I might make within S2OO of what I cleared on the Mae West sheriff’s picnic trailer." Mary McCormic confessed to an interviewer the other day that she may wed a Los Angeles doctor. Could the diva have meant Dr. William H. Rambo, with' whom she has been seen on numerous occasions recently? The reason Katharine Hepburn made a flying trip from location last week was to see her friend. Laura Harding, who has been quite ill. La Hepburn will bring back a three months’ old faun when she returns from making scenes for ’Trigger’’ at Idylwild. The animal’s mother was run over and killed by forest rangers. Katharine adopted it and the faun now eats out of her hand. The actress has set workmen to i clearing off a half square block of l

Fred Hilton, Wilson Gulick. Otie Shifferly. Dean Byerly. Glen Mr- 1 Millen. Ralph Longenberger, William Evans. William Johnson, Howard Manlier. B. S. Colter, Warren Morris, O. S. Fortney, and the Misses Ruth Schwartz. Helen Schenck, Mildred Helm and Helen Nyffler. The next meeting will be held November 23 at the home of Mrs., B. S. Colter. FEDERATION REPORT GIVEN AT CLUB MEETING Mrs. E. B Adams was hostess to the members of the Ladiee Shakes-' peare Club and one guest, Miss Jessie Winch of Fort Wayne, Fri-p day afternoon.

Walton and Mrs. Burt Town- ■ send.

The Desert Inn and the Dunes drew a flock of other celebs. Sari Maritza and Bernie Toplitsky had them staring but they laughed off romance rumors. Buster Collier was squiring the stylish Rita Kaufman, and Janet Gaynor came down with her mother and her inseparable companion. Margaret Lindsay. QUICK GLIMPSES James N.
